Raspberry Pi 4 Offers Pre-Orders

It is based on the impending Debian 10 Buster launching and offers a modern user interface and updated Chromium 74 web browser. It has also adopted the Mesa V3D graphics driver, which provides OpenGL-accelerated web browsing and is capable of operating 3D applications in a window.

The Raspberry Pi 4 Model B accessories are also available, including a new case, a USB Type-C power supply, a microUSB to USB Type-C adapter, and micro HDMI cables with the following upgrades: Gigabit Ethernet, support for up to 4GB of LPDDR4 RAM, dual-band Wi-Fi, as well as 4K60 hardware HEVC decode support.

“For the first time, we provide a PC-like level of performance for most users, while retaining the interfacing capabilities and hackability of the classic Raspberry Pi line. What’s changed with Raspberry Pi 4 is that, in addition to being a device for learning about computing, it’s also much more suitable than its predecessors for use as a general-purpose classroom computer,” said Raspberry Pi’s founder, Eben Upton.
